{"product_id":"9781575675350","title":"Creative Bible Teaching","description":"Are you a bridge builder? Communicating the Scriptures is much like building  a bridge. However, instead of ravines or rivers, the teacher must span both cultural  boundaries and great gulfs of time between the present and the past of Moses, David,  Jesus, and Paul. This bridge must reach even further. The student must be able to  cross both into the past and into his own future. God's Word is \"living and  active, sharper than any double-edged sword\" (Hebrews 4:12). It is contemporary,  relevant. But it is the teacher who has the task of helping the student to see its  vast treasures. This is no easy task, but it can be done through creative Bible  teaching. Together, Richards and Bredfeldt have written a book on bridge-building  that reveals the following five-step process by which Christian educators can construct  a bridge across time, geography, and culture. Step I: \"Studying the Bible\"  Develop an understanding of the nature, role, study, and interpretation of the Bible.  Get the help you need in preparing biblically accurate lesson plans. Step II: \"Focusing  the Message\" Learn how to teach for student learning. Be guided in the process  of translating learning theory into lesson preparation. Step III: \"Structuring  the Lesson\" Develop a lesson plan using the HOOK, BOOK, LOOK, TOOK structure.  Step IV: \"Teaching the Class\" Learn about the five key principles of teacher  effectiveness. Discover how these principles can lead to a more dynamic and satisfying  teaching experience within various age groups. Step V: \"Evaluating the Results\"  Evaluate your own effectiveness by assessing the outcome of your teaching.","brand":"Moody Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150114439408,"sku":"9781575675350","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781575675350_p0.jpg?v=1763798881","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781575675350","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
